Page 12 KICKBACK See Figure 8. The best guard against kickback is to avoid dangerous practices. Kickback occurs when the blade stalls rapidly and the saw is driven back towards you. Blade stalling is caused by any action which pinches the blade in the wood.
Page 13 ■ When making a cut use steady, even pressure. Never force cuts. ■ Do not cut warped or wet lumber. ■ Always hold your saw firmly with both hands and keep your body in a balanced position so as to resist the forces of kickback should it occur.
Page 14 TO HELP MAINTAIN CONTROL: ■ Always support your workpiece near the cut. ■ Support your workpiece so the cut will be on your left. ■ Clamp your workpiece so it will not move during the cut. Place your workpiece with its good side down. NOTE: The good side is the side on which appearance is important.
Page 15 TO CROSS CUT OR RIP CUT When making a cross cut or rip cut, align your line of cut with the outer blade guide notch on the saw base as shown in figure 17. Since blade thicknesses vary, always make a trial cut in scrap material along a guideline to determine how much, if any, the guideline must be offset to produce an accurate cut.
Page 16 TO BEVEL CUT The angle of cut of your saw may be adjusted to any desired setting between zero and 50 ° . NOTE: When making cuts at 50 ° , blade should be set at full depth of cut. When making 45 ° bevel cuts, there is a notch in the saw base to help you line up the blade with the line of cut.
